Benefits of technology

[0003]The carbon brush with disconnection apparatus according to the invention has the advantage that, on account of the plastic material, the costs for the carbon brush can be reduced and, furthermore, a shorter, compact design of the disconnection apparatus can be achieved. Plastic material also has the advantage of easier shaping for different configurations. Furthermore, as a result the preconditions are created for the components comprising compression-spring body and disconnection body to be configured as a one-piece component. The use of different plastic materials for the compression-spring body, on the one hand, and the disconnection body, on the other hand, is also possible in a one-piece configuration; the disconnection apparatus can also be produced in the two-component process. Since plastic material has a sealing action in a corresponding confi

Problems solved by technology

Cylindrical helical springs made of metal as compression-spring bodies are costly and can be damaging, e.g. break.
During this time, transverse forces act on the compression-spring body as a result of the contact of the disconnection body with the rotating commutator, which may le

Example

[0027]In the second exemplary embodiment, shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the compression-spring body 24 is once more made of plastic and springy. It can be formed of a thermoplastic. The compression-spring body 24 is formed as an approximately cylindrical helical spring 25 having a plurality of spring turns 28, 29, 30, the spring turns running spirally. Instead of this, the compression-spring body 24 according to FIGS. 3 and 4 can also have such spring turns which, at least in the preloaded, compressed state, are located at least partly one inside the other, when shortening the compression-spring body 24. Illustrated in FIGS. 3 and 4 at the upper end of the cavity 12 is a separating disk 13, which is necessary when the spring 25 is not able to seal the cavity 12 against the material of the plug 14 on the basis of its material-based sealing capacity. The compression-spring body 24 and the disconnection body 21 are combined to form an integral one-piece plastic component and thus constitute ...

Abstract

A carbon brush with a disconnection apparatus has, in a cavity in the brush body, a disconnection body. The disconnection body includes an electrically insulating material and a prestressed compression-spring body. The compression-spring body is configured to act resiliently on the disconnection body. At least one of the compression-spring body and the disconnection body is formed from plastic.

Description

PRIOR ART[0001]The invention is based on a carbon brush with disconnection apparatus according to the preamble of claim 1.[0002]Carbon brushes of this type are known (DE 1 679 529 U1) in which the compression-spring body consists of a cylindrical helical spring made of spring steel, which, in order to achieve the lowest overall length of the system of the disconnection apparatus and the greatest possible wear travel of the brush body, can be preloaded and compressed at most to such an extent that the cylindrical turns thereof rest on one another and the spring is preloaded to form a block. As a result the maximum usable wear travel of the brush body is determined, which results from the ratio of the possible theoretical wear travel of the carbon brush to the length of the disconnection apparatus. A low wear travel as a real useful length of the brush body requires early replacement of the carbon brushes when the latter have exceeded the permissible wear travel. Cylindrical helical s...
